For the last several months the Community Based Rehabilitation team has been working to pass on as much knowledge and skills to our clients as possible through peer support groups, to enable them to care for each other and build a foundation community support in several refugee camps that we work in. We have been serving over 20 different groups with this new approach and many more are waiting to begin.
One of the peer groups has a couple clients that suffer from hemophilia, and one of them and his family was fearful for him to get outside because of the possibility of injury and the dangerous consequences. As a result he had not gone out of their tent for months. The other person with hemophilia and his family quickly began to encourage and remind them of the importance for them to get outside, and decided to start stopping by their tent to take them outside and help them.
